Visa Information


Information from the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT)

A visa is a form of permission for a non-citizen to enter, transit or remain in a particular country.

A visa does not guarantee entry, that decision remains the right of the immigration officials of the country concerned.

The immigration laws of most countries do not have provision for appeal. Some countries ask visitors to present return tickets and evidence of funds sufficient to cover the intended stay. Others have compulsory currency exchange regulations on entry.

Some refuse entry to visitors who do not comply with requirements regarding general appearance and clothing, or visitors who are HIV positive.

For further information on visa requirements for the country you are traveling to, ask your AFTA travel agent or contact the nearest embassy or consulate of that country. A link to the list of overseas embassies and consulates located in Australia may be found on the
DFAT website
